- Child of Winter
Child of the winter snow's,
Born of the rising sun,
A pale new moon was fading fast,
As her life began.
You were the fruits of the season,
Laurel, Ivy and Mistletoe,
Evergreen and never fading,
When the cold wind blows.
- Cruel Sister
There lived a lady by the North Sea shore
(Lay the bent to the bonnie broom)
Two daughters were the babes she bore
(Fa la la la la la la la la la)

- I've Got a Feeling
I got a feeling
Concerning you
You know I got a feeling
Concerning you
Concerning the things you do...
I ain't dreaming
When I think of you
You know I ain't dreaming
- Lyke-Wake Dirge
This ae nighte, this ae nighte,
Every nighte and alle,
Fire and fleet and candle-lighte,
And Christe receive thy saule.
When thou from hence away art past,
Every nighte and alle,
To Whinny-muir thou com'st at last;
- Once I Had A Sweetheart
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
Once I had a sweetheart and now I have none
He's gone and left me He's gone and left me
Gone and left me in sorrow to mourn
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
Last night in sweet slumber I dreamed I did see
My own darling jewel sat smiling by me
- The toss of golden hair
As I was going to Dublin on the very first day of the year
A young and pretty maiden on the road before me did appear
Would you halt for my pretty maiden I did ask of her so softly
It's a truelcy that I dwelt so, and a fairer place you'll never see
Now it's my turn for a question this pretty maiden did decide
Are you free to make so bold now when at home your poor wife does reside
'Tis true, my wife is ever eyelaw I mean's past remain some longer
- Way Behind the Sun
I'm going back baby way behind the sun
I'm going back baby way behind the sun
I'm gonna find me some honey and I just might bring you some
Now I'm going back baby don't you want to go
Now I'm going back baby don't you want to go
Goodbye to trouble never come back no more
Your gonna go out and find one of those fancy men
